Lithium, gold and base metals exploration company Golden State Mining Limited (ASX code: “ GSM ” or the “ Company ”) is pleased to provide rock chip assay results following a geochemical program conducted at its Paynes Find lithium project in Western Australia.
Golden State’s Managing Director, Michael Moore commented: “Despite the very limited fieldwork coverage thus far, GSM has already validated its original targeting criteria at the Paynes Find lithium project – a self-generated asset in the greater Murchison region of Western Australia.
These encouraging results come from a recent field trip which identified outcropping pegmatites and further enhanced the prospectivity of the project. This data provides the basis for a robust drilling campaign in 2024.
GSM looks forward to carrying out further fieldwork during this quarter, assisting drill-hole placement, target vectoring and updating shareholders as work progresses.”
Paynes Find (Li) Project
GSM has received assay results for 18 rock chip samples collected from a range of pegmatite outcrops at the Paynes Find North (Figure 1) and Paynes Find Central project areas (refer to ASX announcement dated 8 November 2023). These results were taken from a preliminary reconnaissance field mapping exercise only with no comprehensive sampling undertaken. The sampled rock chip locations were selected within areas previously highlighted by soils anomalous in lithium (Li), rubidium (Rb), caesium (Cs) and other lithium pathfinder elements (refer to ASX announcement dated 13 June 2023). A results table of significant elements and key element ratios is provided in Appendices 1 & 2.

Paynes Find North (E59/2660, 2661, 2662 & E59/2701)
At Paynes Find North, assay results for seven rock chip samples returned several highly encouraging results with significant lithium, rubidium and caesium values along with elevated tantalum and niobium. The best result was reported from rock chip sample PFNR016, which recorded a lithium assay approaching an ore grade of 4,170ppm Li (0.9% Li₂O), 2,650ppm Rb (0.29% Rb₂O) and 178ppm Cs. This sample (Figure 2) was collected from a weathered pegmatite sub-crop approximately 3 metres wide with a very coarse-grained K-feldspar-muscovite with opaque quartz pegmatitic mineral assemblage trending approximately 110 degrees east-southeast.

Rock chip sample PFNR015 recorded 486ppm Li (0.1% Li₂O), 1,420ppm Rb (0.16% Rb₂O) and 112ppm Cs approximately 20 metres away from PFNR016. Field logging of this sub-crop consisting of 3 sub-parallel units (Figure 3) recorded a weathered, coarse-grained intrusive comprised mainly of K-feldspar and quartz also trending east-southeast.
Assay results (Appendix 1) from three other rock chip samples (PFNR010, PFNR011 and PFNR013) also recorded anomalous Li-Rb-Cs values along with elevated tantalum and niobium from various pegmatite outcrops. Rock chip sample PFNR013 was collected approximately 150 metres north of PFNR016 while PFNR010 & 11 were collected approximately 2.5 kilometres to the west in another Li-Rb-Cs soil anomalous envelope.
All these recent results are located approximately 6 kilometres north-northwest of previously reported rock chip results (Figure 4) recording Li-Rb-Cs anomalism with lithium pathfinder support (refer to ASX announcement dated 22 December 2022).

Figure 3: Paynes Find North Rock Chip Sample PFNR015 images on sub-crop.
The assay results demonstrate the significant number of the mapped pegmatites at Paynes Find North are of lithium-caesium-tantalum (“LCT”) affinity, confirming the identified geochemical signatures from soil sampling. This interpretation is corroborated by several key element fractionation indices (Appendix 2), including potassium/rubidium (K/Rb), potassium/caesium (K/Cs), and niobium/tantalum (Nb/Ta) which have been used to assess the prospectivity of their pegmatite hosts. Fractionation indices from the rock chips vary from moderate to high. The samples with lithium > 180 ppm have K/Rb ratios ≤ 30 and Nb/Ta ≤ 0.7. The highest lithium contents in samples PFNR015 and PFNR016 had the most favourable fractionation indices, including K/Cs < 400. The consistency of these values with lithium results indicates the potential for a highly fractionated system that may contain economic lithium mineralization if pegmatites of sufficient size lie beneath the sampled outcrop.
Paynes Find Central (E59/2679)
Assay results from 11 rock chip samples (Appendix 1), collected from pegmatite sub-crops in another Li-Rb-Cs soil anomalous area at Paynes Find Central have also been received. Anomalous and elevated rubidium is reported in the majority of these samples with the most significant result of 1,060ppm (0.12% Rb₂O) from rock chip sample PFCR011.
Rock chip sample PFCR012 was collected approximately 800 metres to the east of PFCR011 and reported 1,050ppm (0.12% Rb₂O). No significant lithium anomalism is reported in these results.
Samples will now be submitted for preliminary mineralogical test work including XRD analysis to identify the mineral suite in these samples.

Figure 4: Paynes Find Regional plan showing recent and previous geochemical results.
Target generation for the Paynes Find drill program (planned for Q1 2024) is now well advanced, with drill-hole placement and target vectoring to be directed by detailed field mapping and a more extensive rock chip sampling program scheduled for December 2023. This will involve grid pattern rock chip sampling and a structural mapping interpretation over anomalous soil and rock chip locations to determine the most prospective pegmatite orientation for drilling.

| Geology | Deposit type, geological setting and style of mineralisation. | The priority target is pegmatitic hosted lithium-caesium-tantalum | |
| mineralisation associated with greenstone and granitoid | |||
| intrusives. Also targeted is Archaean gold and base-metal | |||
| mineralisation. | |||
| Drill hole | A summary of all information material to the understanding of | NA Rock chip sampling only | |
| Information | the exploration results including a tabulation of the following information for all Material drill holes: |
||
| easting and northing of the drill hole collar | |||
| elevation or RL (Reduced Level. - elevation above | |||
| sea level in metres) of the drill hole collar | |||
| dip and azimuth of the hole | |||
| down hole length and interception depth | |||
| hole length. | |||
| If the exclusion of this information is justifed on the basis that | |||
| the information is not Material and this exclusion does not | |||
| detract from the understanding of the report, the Competent | |||
| Person should clearly explain why this is the case. | |||
| Data | In reporting Exploration Results, weighting averaging techniques, | No top-cuts have been applied when reporting results. | |
| aggregation methods |
maximum and/or minimum grade truncations (eg cutting of high grades) and cut-of grades are usually Material and should be stated. |
NA for rock chip samples. | |
| No Aggregate sample assays are reported. | |||
| Where aggregate intercepts incorporate short lengths of high | |||
| grade results and longer lengths of low grade results, the | Anomalous values based on >100 ppm Li. | ||
| procedure used for such aggregation should be stated and some | |||
| typical examples of such aggregations should be shown in detail. | No metal equivalent values have been applied for reporting of | ||
| results. | |||
| The assumptions used for any reporting of metal equivalent values | |||
| should be clearly stated. | |||
| Relationship | These relationships are particularly important in the reporting of | NA as rock chip sampling only | |
| between | Exploration Results. | ||
| mineralisation | If the geometry of the mineralisation with respect to the drill hole | ||
| widths and | angle is known, its nature should be reported. | ||
| intercept | If it is not known and only the down hole lengths are reported, | ||
| lengths | there should be a clear statement to this efect (e.g. ‘down hole length, true width not known’). |
